#Lego Boulder Cliff Canyon set #6748
My love of sets like this made it very unsurprising that I became a #History nerd, then history major in college and now am a history teacher as an adult. If I remember correctly I received this set for my 10th birthday, I believe I was in the 4th grade and that would have been around the winter of 1998. This was easily the largest and most expensive set I owned as a child. I remember it being massive: it has 6 #MiniFigs, 2 horses, a printed baseplate, teepee, multiple play features, and lots of other #MiniFigure weapons and accessories, as well as animals. however looking at it now as an adult, it it shocking that a set this large has only ~250 pieces, the size is mostly accomplished with rock pieces and the big teepee, the prints relating to native Americans seem stereotypical at best, and I am sure the price to part ratio was horrendous (especially in late 1990’s dollars). It’s hard for me to fairly grade this though, I know how much I loved it as a kid and got hours & hours of play out of this. The #Nostalgia weighs heavy & I received it as a gift, so I was really not concerned about the price to part ratios and all that back then. So I think I would give this set at A- or so.
